What if Durham County Library was not only a "Best Library" as we envisioned on Staff Day, but also a best employer?  What if Durham County Library was THE place to work in Durham County and THE place to be for the Durham community?  What if we were even better than that?

If this sounds like something you want to be a part of, read Skip Auld's editorial in the Durham Herald-Sun for Library Worker's Day.  The Herald-Sun requires a log-in (it's free!), but you can also go to NCLive and read it on "America's Newspapers" (call your local library for the password).

How can we do this?

• Read the Librarian's Manifesto on YouTube (*brief nudity warning*) for an idea on how our attitude's can help us move Durham County Library into the future.

• Check out the Herald-Sun article on the Durham County Library's Book Cart Drill Team (requires free registration, but is also on NCLive) and the County Commissioner's video (it's item number 5).  If you don't believe a drill team can change your attitude about work, just ask those of us on the team. And just look at those smiles! 

Do you have other ideas?  Post them to this page, along with links.  The wiki is a community effort and we need the Durham County Library community to help us shape our future!
